Major Description
I cannot create a table with 256 evenly-sliced splits using the API. I believe due to the fact that Text can only hold valid Unicode characters, the following only generates 129 splits:
TableOperations tableOps = connector.tableOperations();
TreeSet<Text> splits = new TreeSet<Text>();
for (int i = 0; i < 256; i++) {
byte[] bytes = { (byte) i };
String theStr = new String(bytes);
splits.add(new Text(theStr));
}
tableOps.addSplits(TABLE_NAME, splits);
Using getsplits in the shell, I see the highest split be 0x7F; while we can use byte values 0x80 through 0xFF as leading bytes in row keys, the use of Text in the addSplits() method makes these invalid strings to split on.
